Abstract
An apparatus to remove ions, the apparatus comprising an inlet to let water in the apparatus, an outlet to let water out of the apparatus, a capacitor, and a spacer to separate a first and a second electrode of the capacitor and to allow water to flow in between the electrodes. The apparatus comprises a regeneration mode controller configured to control, during a regeneration mode in which ions previously attracted to the capacitor are released in a waste water stream, one or more of: the electrical current flowing to the capacitor; the voltage on the capacitor; and/or the water flowing in between the electrodes. The regeneration mode controller is constructed and arranged to control one or more of the electrical current, the voltage, and/or the water flow during the regeneration mode such that scaling is reduced or minimized in the apparatus.
